Q:
Bagel or Donut?Topologist:
<doesn’t understand the question>Topology is one of those sciences that is hyper-niche to the point that it seems like it would have very limited scope, but when you take a closer look it’s actually studying something fundamental.
This is exactly why my local Dunkin Donuts stopped serving topologists.
Same! Now they serve coffee and donuts instead.
Ha, if you can even call them that!
HEY EVERYONE! This guys a nerd! Throw rocks at his face!
I see no coffee here.
Anybody ever think about how humans are just very oddly shaped donuts?
“BEHOLD. A MAN!”
Go home, Diogenes!
That’s not entirely true. We don’t have just one hole going through us. Our holes branch. We have 3 intakes (2 nostrils, 1 mouth) and 2 outputs (1 anus, 1 urethra). If you simplified us down topographically, it’d be like you formed a donut around a starfish with the arms sticking out and then you just deleted the starfish.
We also have a bunch of doors on the holes.
So… you’re saying we’re houses.
…topologically. Geometrically, I’m more of a saggy tent myself
Ugh such a good video. Cya in 20 minutes
There’s a vsauce video about this

It’s asking about the coffee not the coffee cup.
If your coffee has a hole in it that’s weird.
Ah but you see, coffee in this mug would have a hole in it:
I could fuck that coffee cup.
I believe you
I had a very cool class in research epistemology and the exercise was basically to answer the question, do liquids have a shape and if yes, which is it? How would you prove it?
It was the source of the most deranged but valuable discussion I’ve ever had.
If the “thread” width is around the size of an electron, then the coffee (liquid) has basically infinite hole.
The same applies to the cup, our hands and so on
Just enjoy the meme you fuckin nerd.
I can’t enjoy it if it’s obviously based on lies.
Plus look at that fucking coffee cup handle and tell me you like it, I dare you.
I take my coffee black-hole seriously.
A black hole isn’t a hole.
If it’s in space sure, but what if it’s on a person.
You could say the same thing about a bullet but a bullet isn’t a hole either.
Is “topologist” a job? Like someone who specializes in telling you how many holes and knots exist in a given object, How to “untie” seemingly knotted things that actually topographically have no knots? Do you clock in for that, or is it a 1099 freelancer thing?
Only if you are a very good ologist
3D artists can specialize in topology where they make sure to clean up the models that other artists sculpt to optimize them for animation and performance. Depending on the use case you need different approaches to a models topology and it can get very complex actually. So yeah, it is people’s entire jobs to do this and they probably get paid more than us.
you can be a mathematics professor who specializes in topology, but that’s probably about as close as it gets from what i know
Let me know so I can hand them my Blender models I’m too lazy to RE-topologize. Ugh! Lol
The Animorphs book covers are getting weird…
Stay too long as a coffee cup and you’ll remain a donut forever!
nooo!
I’m 50 and this is deep
I’m just gonna give the dude a lump of clay and he can do whatever he wants with it.
Okay, so eat the fucking coffee cup. I’ll wait.

Moclans are Topologists!
I’d eat a coffee mug shaped donut, but a waffle would hold up better. An elephant ear is fine as well, but a crepe is right out.
What about a beavers tail?
If the answer is yes, please come visit Canada and enjoy one with cinnamon and lemon (the best flavour) in Ottawa while skating on our gorgeous canal!
I always wondered what it would look like if you took Eastern European savory donuts and made them bigger and flatter. They look delicious!
Who’s out here deep frying crepes? American county/state fair vendors?
Well, they are now.
It’s like watching an embryo develop into a child.
Except those go from one hole to over a dozen.
The Everything Everywhere All at Once sequel got weird.
because the original was a parade of normality?
